They should have ran that back a little ways when he said he hopes he can look like her when he's 70 years old, before she said she hadn't seen her 50th! Laughing!!!
Woodrows' afro was tight......one of my favorite characters on the show.... have known a few elder Brothers like that in the day, in my neighborhood ..... my Black People
You are correct, The 2nd and Best one as far as I'm concerned, They had 2 other guys play Him, 1 guy In which was also the first episode in which La Wanda Page was introduced for the first time as Esther Anderson and one episode Robert Guillaume From the Series Benson during the last year of Good times, But He was second by a mile to Raymond Allen
Rest in peace Raymond....... passed away on Aug 11th 2020 age 91 Allen had been sick for a while ... he was in a health care facility since 2016 ... where he had bouts with pneumonia. Raymond Allen is survived by 2 children. Raymond G. Allen, Sr., a character actor who played Uncle Woody in "Sanford and Son," has died. Allen's family tells TMZ, he was in a long-term facility in California when he was found unresponsive early Monday morning. EMT's tried reviving him, to no avail. The family says Allen died as a result of respiratory issues, but not COVID-related.
Wow thanks for the information. Glad he didn't pass from COVID. If you all remember the girl with the short bush on Good Times that Michael was scared to talk to at first, that was Raymond's actual daughter, (TaRonce Allen).
I love this show ! Always looked foward to watching it every week when it came out. Woodrow plays a drunk to the T. Excellent actor . Fred. Samford a Genius at playing his part. Lamont and all the rest a well put cast and show !
Lady: "I beg your pardon but I'll have you to know that I haven't seen my fiftieth birthday." Uncle Woody: "Oh? Well I did. I saw your fiftieth birthday and it was twenty years ago as I recall." ROTFLMAO
He said the same thing on Good Times when those men were after James friend and they were in the elevator with Ned and he said y'all didn't get invited to the party too Now what does that tell you huh 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love every one on the show. Woodrow was great. So was Grady when he filled in for Fred, he was so funny. I own the the series and finished watching all again 4 months ago. I normally re start them every year in a half.
I feel, because I came up as a little boy in this area of comedy, an understood it, even though I was to Yong to be watching it, it was still pure. and it still has that purity of comedy for on the floor, rolling around, crying and holding your sides, until your out of breath. Kind comedy😆.....oh yeah did I mention, thought provoking an mind-numbing, at the same time.👌👍😆✌️
Raymond Allen was and excuse me when i say this with all due respect THE BEST DRUNK ON TV LOL THAT EVER DID HE WAS ON GOOD TIMES HE HAD ME ROOOOOLLLLLIIIINNNGGGGG 😂😂😂😂 REST IN HEAVEN 🙏🏾❤️
@ Jason. Yeah, I remember the original Woodrow. Esther wanted him to put down the glass and stop drinking. She told" Woodrow..you came here with Teeth..then gave him the evil eye. The audience went nuts and so did my family as we watched the episode in real time.
Dear publisher Alan Mathis Unto thee must we say this 'Uncle Woody' and his drunken humour Will always keep us returning unto yer And how his humour interacts with that of the Aunt Esther Is, in the very words of the Tina Turner ... "simply the bester" ... (best) !!!
